How They Can Help

Their property tax practice encompasses residential and commercial assessment appeals, with particular strength in legal representation during formal hearings and appeals processes. They conduct detailed property valuations using all three approaches: sales comparison, cost, and income methods to build comprehensive cases for tax reduction. Specialized services include homestead exemption applications, agricultural land classification reviews, and senior citizen property tax relief programs. For commercial clients, they provide income approach valuations, lease analysis, and capitalization rate studies tailored to specific property types. They also handle assessment appeals for unique properties including historic buildings, contaminated sites, and properties with easement restrictions that affect value.

What to Expect

The process begins with a detailed consultation where they review your property tax statement, assessment details, and any relevant property information. They'll explain your legal rights and options under Minnesota property tax law, providing realistic expectations about potential outcomes. If an appeal is appropriate, they conduct thorough research including comparable sales analysis, property inspections, and legal precedent review. They prepare all necessary documentation and represent you at county review board hearings. For complex cases requiring further appeal, they can represent you at the Minnesota Tax Court level with full litigation support.

Service Area

Sherayzen Law Office serves Minneapolis and the greater Twin Cities metropolitan area, including all of Hennepin and Ramsey counties. They also handle cases throughout Minnesota, with particular experience in suburban and rural counties where assessment practices may vary significantly from urban areas.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes legal representation different for property tax appeals?
Legal representation ensures your rights are fully protected and provides access to formal appeal processes beyond county level. We can represent you in Tax Court if needed and handle complex legal issues affecting property value.
Do I need an attorney for a simple residential appeal?
Simple residential appeals may not require legal representation, but an attorney ensures proper procedure and can identify legal issues you might miss. We can advise whether legal representation benefits your specific situation.
What are your fees for property tax appeals?
Our fees typically range from $250-400 per hour depending on case complexity. We provide detailed fee agreements upfront and some cases may qualify for alternative fee arrangements.
Can you appeal to Minnesota Tax Court if the county denies my appeal?
Yes, we provide full litigation services for Tax Court appeals. This requires formal legal procedures and deadlines that must be strictly followed to preserve your appeal rights.
How do you determine if my property assessment is legally excessive?
We analyze comparable sales data, property conditions, and assessment methodology against Minnesota property tax law standards. Legal analysis includes reviewing assessment procedures for compliance with state requirements.
What documentation do you need for my property tax case?
We need your property tax statements, assessment notices, purchase documents, and any property condition information. For commercial properties, income and expense statements are also essential.
How long do property tax appeals typically take with legal representation?
County-level appeals usually resolve in 4-6 months. Tax Court appeals can take 12-24 months due to formal legal procedures and court scheduling requirements.
What happens if we don't succeed in reducing my property taxes?
If unsuccessful, your current assessment remains in place until the next assessment cycle. However, legal representation ensures all proper procedures were followed and all arguments were presented effectively.
